During her routine maiden voyage under Captain Harriman, the starship received a distress call from two El-Aurian transport vessels caught in a strange, mysterious energy ribbon. Kirk, on board as an honored guest, assists in the rescue and in freeing the Enterprise, now caught in the temporal field. He is successful, but as the Enterprise pulls away, the ribbon suddenly strikes the starship, tearing a large gash through the hull and leaving only debris where Kirk was working.

2372- Launched under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard

New Sovereign-class starship, registry NCC-1701-E, commanded by Picard since its launch on SD 49827.5 from the San Francisco Yards over Earth. With twenty-four decks, it was equipped with the latest in equipment and defenses, including quantum torpedoes. It did not go into full service immediately, even for shakedowns; by SD 50893.5 the ship had only been in space and fully crewed for 'nearly' a year. Having plunged into a temporal wake at Earth created by invading Borg, it visited the time of Cochrane's pioneering warp drive test and first contact with Vulcans in 2063 to repel the Borg's would-be sabotage.
